"Is everything all right? Why don't you say a word?" Kenzo asked again as if he would not be satisfied before Silvia answered him.

"Thank you for caring, but I'm very good. Everything is fine." Silvia answered casually and softly. After all, she thought a person's kindness couldn't be ignored. It was disrespectful!

"Very good. Wish you have a good day." Kenzo was very clumsy. He was not the type of guy who easy to make small talk as usual. He was known to rarely speak. While talking to Silvia, he also had to struggle with a gripping clumsiness.

Silvia continued to smile, thinking that was the most appropriate reply. She was getting ready to go. However… Kenzo held her back, "Doctor Silvia, don't you think our summons are too formal? We are no longer in a hospital environment. Do you mind if I just called you Silvia?"

"I don't think it's formal but you can call me anything. It's up to you. But I prefer to be called by name." It was just a name. Silvia wouldn't mind about it.

"Then are you going to call me Kenzo without 'doctor' or Mr. Briggs?"

Silvia's forehead frowned. This guy ... It was just a nickname, why he made it complicated? Silvia had never met someone so unique like this.

But even so, she still nodded, "Of course, if that's what you want."

But at the very least, she justified her assessment of this man, he was too bad at starting the conversation!

Silvia didn't want to bother. When she was about to leave, Kenzo quickly grabbed her arm. He knew if Silvia left, it meant that the chances were getting smaller. Men have to fight, right?

"Silvia, wait a minute ..."

He even immediately called Silvia by name! Kenzo was really struggling!

Silvia did not answer but stared at him with a frown as if she wanted to wait for this man's purpose for holding her back.

"That… I came here alone and it turns out that after I arrived, I just realized that drinking alone is very unpleasant. Can I join you? Are you alone or with your friends?"

Again and again, Silvia smiled but that smile did not erase her arrogant attitude, "Doctor Kenzo, no one asked you to come to the bar alone."

Silvia's statement was clear. He who came alone, why should Silvia be involved in it! Kenzo was not ignorant of that point either.

But he smiled without hesitation, and then said, "I have a little personal problem, then I came here. Doctor Silvia, we've known each other for a long time, shouldn't we be classified as friends? Can you accompany me to a drink tonight? Or if you have friends here, can you invite me to join you? Being alone in a crowded place seems a little unpleasant!"

And Silvia had to care about his problems? Perhaps he had forgotten what a doctor Silvia's heart was made of.

"I'm here with my friends. It's impolite to bring you to join them. It's too sudden without prior notice."

"Uhh ... Is it really like that? But I don't think so. What if we come first and ask your friends for their opinion. If they are bothered by my presence, I can leave."

Silvia didn't feel like this was the right thing, nor did she want to get along with this person. She didn't like being around other people. It made her uncomfortable. That was why she only had Edrei as a friend.

"Sorry Doctor Kenzo. You'd better find a seat for just one person, or ask someone here to accompany you for a drink." Silvia really had the heart.

"Do you think that's very bad? I'm… uncomfortable around strangers." Kenzo put on a very sad face.

Silvia didn't want to waste her time dealing with him for a long time. Who knew if he got rejected, he would end up keeping Silvia here. Thinking about that, only then did Silvia unwillingly agree.

"Hmm… alright. Come on!"

Kenzo was very happy. He walked gallantly beside Silvia. He definitely wouldn't forget this moment!

When they reached the room, they found Kenzie who was still trying to force Kaili to sing. From the looked of it, it seemed like Kenzie had just finished singing.

"Sister-in-law, now it's your turn. I already sang, aren't you going to sing? We are waiting for you, you know!"

"Eh… But I really can't. I'm afraid you will feel uncomfortable with my immature voice."

"Never mind, in my brother's eyes, you are very perfect. Even though you are doing bad, but for him, you are the most perfect. He loves you the most."

These words, of course, Dexter couldn't say without gulping many times, and now that his brother was saying things he couldn't, it seemed he needed to think of a great gift for Kenzie for saying things that represented his heart.

"Madame Chiro, how do we know your voice is so bad if you haven't sung yet? Come on! It's okay, even if it's bad, we won't say things that criticize you. We even thank you for giving up your vocal cords to sing for us."

Right, it would be grateful if her voice was like a great singer but the fact was quite the opposite! Kaili couldn't sing!

"Sing ..." That one word escaped Dexter's mouth.

"Eh ..." Kaili turned to the source of the voice. She found Dexter's calm face and a very a charming little smile. His eyes lit up. It seemed ... his heart's condition was very good. Was it because you would hear me sing? Thought Kaili.

Because Dexter wanted to hear her voice so badly, Kaili was forced to agree. She didn't care about people's judgments. All she wanted was her husband's judgment. She gripped the microphone with trembling hands and began to say the title of the song she wanted to sing.

She started singing ~

Love is a gift from the Almighty

Which when you feel how wonderful

How weak I am,

Meaningless my life,

If you don't exist.

If I could,

I will repay all that you have ever given.

Thank you from me, for your sincerity,

Love me.

I exist because you also exist

With love, you make me live

Forever.

Note: This is a song from an Indonesian musician. The original title is "Aku ada karena kau ada." I chose this song because the lyrics are very sweet and it fits perfectly with their love story, Kaili, and Dexter. For more information, you guys can check on YouTube.

After Kaili finished singing the song, everyone who was there fell silent. Seeing those who didn't react at all, Kaili became very restless and sad. Their silence must have been because the sound was so bad, it would destroy the eardrums who heard it! She shouldn't be singing! At this time, Kaili wanted to cry until all her tears ran aground. Very shy! Moreover, there is her love rival here. Who is willing to look ugly in front of the rivals? No one!

But suddenly.....

"Sister-in-law, did you just lip sync?" Kenzie broke the silence. "Your voice ... It is so melodious! Even better than a professional singer! It gives goosebumps. So amazing."

Kaili was shocked, this is too much! Kaili could hardly believe it. If it's melodious, why isn't there applause? Kenzie must be just entertaining her.

"You don't have to comfort me, I know, I know, I've damaged your hearing!" Kaili was very sad when she said this.

"To cheer you up? Sister in law I told you, don't think because you are my brother's wife, so I will cheer you up. I'm not that good! Surely, my brother has also told you about me that I'm ignorant and I don't care about other people's feelings. It's the fact that your voice is ... very, very melodious and clear. I am so amazed. I'm telling the truth.

Although I am very useless and ignorant, I am a quite good music observer. I'm crazy about music, both vocals and all the instruments.

Sister-in-law, do you really like singing too?" Kenzie ended his words with a question.

"Ah, no, I don't like it. It's just that, I studied vocals when I was a kid. I also never sing other than at a small event at my school. Kenzie, don't compliment me. I'm really uncomfortable." Kaili still felt Kenzie's judgment was wrong. She still didn't believe she could sing well.

True, when she sang at the school's events, everyone would be fascinated by her voice, but that was when she was a child. Even now, Kaili loved to sing, but only when she was alone or in the bathroom. Every time she went to KTV, she was just with Cara.

"Kenzie did not misjudge. My wife was indeed really good at singing. Your voice really made me who didn't understand music was amazed when I heard you sing."

Kaili raised her eyes to the source of the sound. She stared questioningly at the person who was none other than her husband as if she wanted to find the truth of that expression.

Dexter smiled and pulled Kaili slowly. Kaili who was not ready immediately fell into his arms. Dexter pinched Kaili's blushing cheek lightly and positioned her on his lap, "Stupid! Do not look at me with such a look. If I said you have a beautiful voice, maybe you will think I'm just comforting you. But Kenzie also admits. He's someone who understands vocals. There should be no need to doubt his opinion."
